From scales to fur and feathers, there are lots of animals to see at Salvador Zoo. But don't just look, listen too! You'll hear some fascinating noises happening all around you.

Salvador Zoo is a great place to begin exploring Ondina. This wildlife attraction is recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Pencil in time for other attractions like Forte de Santo Antonio da Barra, Farol da Barra Beach, and Porto da Barra Beach to fully experience what's on offer in the area.

I went there 5 times. The 4th I was robbed at ALA SOL. They took my debit card from safety box. I have all the proof. I wrote to them but nobody answered. This summer I came back (close, good sea) and the food was terrible. Bar bartenders hated Argentine people and, there was a bad service at restos and bad food.The only food for veggie people was salad! What was worse, you had to “fight” in order to get a chair at the beach! Terrible! Last but not least, there isn’t a doctor or a place for quick medical attendance. Even though you have your insurance, I was bitten by a giant ant and I almost collapsed. They should have someone in situ. I love the beach at the place but I am quiet disappointed!
